#2 – The Mutant Liberation Front

The famous psychologist, Professor Charles Xavier, gatheres a few mutants to prevent the "File M" from taking air... They arrive at the military base where the X-Office is based. Colonel Brian Clint mentions that Magnus Maximoff is also there.

„Magnus! It's nice to see you" – said Xavier, and they shook hands. – „We haven't meet for ages. What are you doing here?"

„Yes... we've met a long time ago, my old friend. It's a pity that we only meet today at this sad moment." – said Magnus, and looked outside the window.

„Why?"

„I think it's inevitable that the „File M" will take air. My source said that the man, who wants to leak file, is very determined. Except... we take some preventive action."

„We've prepared for this possiblity." – said the Colonel. – „Captain Rogers, please call in Captain Howlett!"

Soon a short and grim man came into the room. He had wide shoulders, and wasn't very friendly and barely showed any emotions at all.

„Charles, Magnus, let me present you Captain James Howlett! He is the best soldier I've ever met in my long life. We fought in Vietman together."

„You are in a good shape despite your age, Captain." – said Magnus. He was suprised.

„Healing abilities worth a lot in military." – laughed the Colonel. – „He still leads one of our elite task forces. Don't you, old sport?"

„I like to kick some asses, sir!" – saluted Captain Howlett. He had a very deep and powerful voice.

„Brian, you never cease to wonder me! But do we know where the man is, who plans to leak the „File M"? What's your plan?" – asked Xavier.

„The task force of Howlett has the coordinates. The man, Douglas Ramsey, works at the NSA. We have to capture him without anybody seeing us. But there's a problem: Magnus said that his source mentioned: Ramsey asked help from an underground mutant organisation. We suspect that these mutants will defend him, and the task force won't be able capture Ramsey."

„I've counted on this possibility." – said the Professor. – „I've asked some of my former and present pupils to accompany your task force. Let me introduce them:

- Jean Grey is a telepath

- Elisabeth Braddock has telekinesis, and an experienced martial artist

- Piotr Rasputin has a steel body and has superhuman strength

- Martin Long has invisibility

In the case of a fight with these underground mutants, Elisabeth and Piotr can join the fight, while Jean and Martin can capture and bring back Ramsey without anyone noticing them."

„I have faith in you, Charles." – smiled Magnus. – „Perhaps your small team and Howlett's task force can capture Ramsey."

„Than let's go! Howlett, take care of these young mutants! And don't forget: they must remain undercover, humans can't see their powers working!" – ordered the Colonel.

The small team left with Howlett and his task force. Xavier and Maximoff walked to the corridor, and watched the team flying away with an airplane.

„I hoped that this wouldn't happen."

„We both know that we can't hide our existance from the world forever!" – said Magnus. - „Sooner or later, but they will know, that we are here. But don't worry, I've prepared for this!"
